South Korea is the best place nowadays to teach English abroad because of excellent salary, prepaid flights and free accommodation provided by private academies.

tigerenglish1, but I believe they don't accept non-native speakers?

Honestly, I can understand why they only hire native speakers, especially in such a competitive industry. I work for a rather cheap teaching company in Japan who amongst the native speakers also hire many non native speakers for placement in public schools. Honestly, some of them I cannot understand their English at all and their vocabulary is very limited. I guess it is fine for teaching young kids but I cannot help but feel the schools are being sold short.

Unfortunately, if you aren't from one of the 6 countries listed on their immigration site, you can't get a teaching visa. Tell me that doesn't suck!

Japan is nice place and we can have our good career over there in teaching,,,,,,

On another note, what is tearching? How can I learn to do it?
